25 p, 927.1 KB Neuron numbers link innovativeness with both absolute and relative brain size / Sol, Daniel (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Olkowicz, Seweryn (Charles University) ; Sayol, Ferran (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Kocourek, Martin (Charles University) ; Zhang, Yicheng (Charles University) ; Marhounová, Lucie (Charles University) ; Osadnik, Christin (University of Duisburg-Essen) ; Corssmit, Eva (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Garcia-Porta, Joan (Universitat de Barcelona. Departament de Genètica, Microbiologia i Estadística) ; Martin, Thomas E. (University of Montana) ; Lefebvre Louis (McGill University) ; Němec, Pavel (Charles University)
A longstanding issue in biology is whether the intelligence of animals can be predicted by absolute or relative brain size. However, progress has been hampered by an insufficient understanding of how neuron numbers shape internal brain organization and cognitive performance. [...]

7 p, 1.5 MB Predictable evolution towards larger brains in birds colonizing oceanic islands / Sayol, Ferran (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Downing, Philip A. (Lund University. Department of Biology, Molecular Ecology and Evolution Laboratory) ; Iwaniuk, Andrew N. (University of Lethbridge. Department of Neuroscience) ; Maspons, Joan (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Sol, Daniel (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals)
Theory and evidence suggest that some selective pressures are more common on islands than in adjacent mainland habitats, leading evolution to follow predictable trends. The existence of predictable evolutionary trends has nonetheless been difficult to demonstrate, mainly because of the challenge of separating in situ evolution from sorting processes derived from colonization events.

15 p, 1.4 MB Coexistence of predators in time : Effects of season and prey availability on species activity within a Mediterranean carnivore guild / Vilella, Marc (Institució Catalana d'Història Natural) ; Ferrandiz-Rovira, Mariona (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Sayol, Ferran (University College London. Department of Genetics, Evolution and Environment) ; Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona
The degree of coexistence among predators can determine the structure of ecological communities. Niche partitioning is a common strategy applied by species to enhance their coexistence. Diet, habitat, or time use can be responsible for segregation among carnivore species, the latter factor being the least studied in Mediterranean ecosystems. [...]

Departement Biologie)
Mast seeding is one of the most intriguing reproductive traits in nature. Despite its potential drawbacks in terms of fitness, the widespread existence of this phenomenon suggests that it should have evolutionary advantages under certain circumstances. [...]

33 p, 1.7 MB On the influence of water conductivity, Ph and climate on bryophyte assemblages in Catalan semi-natural springs / Bes, Miquel (Institució Catalana d'Història Natural) ; Corbera, Jordi (Institució Catalana d'Història Natural) ; Sayol, Ferran (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Bagaria Morató, Guillem (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Jover, Miquel (Universitat de Girona) ; Preece, Catherine (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Viza, Aida (Institució Catalana d'Història Natural) ; Sabater i Comas, Francesc (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Fernández-Martínez, Marcos (Institució Catalana d'Història Natural)
Bryophytes are some of the most sensitive biological indicators of environmental change. Springs have a significant presence of bryophytes and so are ideal habitats for studying their relationship with the environment. [...]

8 p, 752.8 KB Environmental variation and the evolution of large brains in birds / Sayol, Ferran (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Maspons, Joan (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Lapiedra i González, Oriol (Harvard University. Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology) ; Iwaniuk, Andrew N. (University of Lethbridge. Department of Neuroscience) ; Székely, Tamás (University of Bath. Department of Biology and Biochemistry) ; Sol, Daniel (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals)
Environmental variability has long been postulated as a major selective force in the evolution of large brains. However, assembling evidence for this hypothesis has proved difficult. Here, by combining brain size information for over 1,200 bird species with remote-sensing analyses a to estimate temporal variation in ecosystem productivity, we show that larger brains (relative to body size) are more likely to occur in species exposed to larger environmental variation throughout their geographic range.

27 p, 1.5 MB Relative brain size and its relation with the associative pallium in birds / Sayol, Ferran (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Lefebvre, Louis (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Sol, Daniel (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals)
Despite growing interest in the evolution of enlarged brains, the biological significance of brain size variation remains controversial. Much of the controversy is over the extent to which brain structures have evolved independently of each other (mosaic evolution) or in a coordinated way (concerted evolution). [...]

160 p, 4.5 MB Causes and consequences of brain size evolution : a global analysis on birds / Sayol Altarriba, Ferran ; Sol, Daniel, dir. ; Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals
Per què alguns llinatges de vertebrats, incloent els humans, han evolucionat cervells grans és un dels grans trencaclosques de la biologia evolutiva. De les varies hipòtesis que s'han plantejat per intentar resoldre aquest misteri, la variació ambiental destaca com una de les principals causes de la variació en la mida relativa del cervell. [...]

38 p, 1.3 MB Brain size and evolutionary diversification in birds / Sayol, Ferran ; Sol, Daniel, dir. (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Facultat de Biociències
The role of behavior in evolution remains controversial, despite that some ideas are over 100 years old. Changes in behavior are generally believed to enhance evolution by exposing individuals to new selective pressures and by facilitating range expansions. [...]
